The authorities are to be commended for maintaining macroeconomic stability and strong momentum for needed reforms in the face of these external shocks.

The special programme under the subprogramme is aimed at helping landlocked developing countries to mitigate the adverse economic consequences of their geographical disadvantage through: (a) support for policymaking with a view to enhanced productive capacities and sound economic specialization; (b) helping small island developing States to enhance their resilience to external shocks and making steady socio-economic progress possible for most of them; and (c) instilling throughout UNCTAD a practice of devoting systematic attention to the problems of other structurally weak, vulnerable and small economies, as referred to in paragraph 10 of the Accra Accord.

Two major projects have been implemented, one to improve teacher-training modules, the other to promote preventive education for children in difficult situations, in particular street children, with the dual aim of: (i) giving children, in particular underprivileged children, access to the fundamental rights set out in the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and (ii) protecting or lessening the impact of the epidemic on this highly vulnerable section of the population.

States must respect and promote the rights of children living in poverty, including by strengthening and allocating the necessary resources to child protection strategies and programmes, with a particular focus on marginalized children, such as street children, child soldiers, children with disabilities, victims of trafficking, child heads of households and children living in care institutions, all of whom are at a heightened risk of exploitation and abuse.

Data such as highresolution topographical information, which would provide the fundamental baseline for coastal vulnerability studies, wave impact and inundation modelling, is almost entirely absent; thus much of what is understood regarding coastal vulnerability in the Pacific islands region is inferred or based on inadequate baseline data.
